Constitutional Code.
Ch.
§. Remuneration
2. Men in general will not be so strongly acted upon
by the prospect of a quantity either of good or evil or good
considered as about to happen to others, has merely so ever
connected with him, as by the prospect of the same
quantity considered as about to happen to himself.
The only case therefore in which either the application either of punishment
or of reward could be with frequently is that in which
it had in the first place been applied in as large the lar quantity
to the functionary individual himself in the largest quantity in which it
could by possibility be applied to him.
But though as hitherto yet in under every known government
unless in regard to reward that of the United States affords an exception
both punishment and reward have in enormous quantity been
hitherto applied in an state, yet in no without
in which it has been so applied has the quantity actually
applied in an appropriately state been so great as
the greatest capable of being so applied.
